PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Roto-Joint is a specialized joint created by UMI Performance to replace spherical rod ends on control arms for various GM vehicles. It can be installed in control arms that use a ¾”-16 left-hand threaded rod end. Installation is straightforward: simply remove the existing rod end and screw in the Roto-Joint assembly. This joint is perfect for replacing worn rod ends that are causing noise.
The Roto-Joint comes fully assembled with a grease fitting, a new jam nut, and a clear zinc finish. It features CNC machined threads made from 4140 Chrome Moly steel, DOM tubing, and is TIG welded for enhanced strength and durability. The Spanner Wrench is essential for adjusting and disassembling Roto-Joints in UMI Performance products. It helps tighten the adjusting ring to apply more pressure to the delrin inside the Roto-Joint, which prevents wear over time. Additionally, the wrench can be used to disassemble the Roto-Joint for cleaning, inspection, and rebuilding.
UMI's Roto-Joint allows for 28 degrees of total rotation and unrestricted movement in vehicle suspensions. It blends the characteristics of a spherical rod end with the comfort of a softer bushing. This design prevents suspension bind, improves traction, and reduces wheel hop. The Roto-Joint features a 4140 chrome moly, hard chrome plated spherical ball that rotates within a delrin race. The delrin material offers high wear resistance, excellent tensile strength, and maintains its properties effectively. The housing is constructed from 4140 chrome moly threads, with a CNC machined bushing holder that is TIG welded for durability. The Roto-Joint is adjustable and 100% rebuildable, making maintenance and replacement of worn parts easy.
